Tottenham defender Micky van de Ven had a remarkable moment.

The Dutchman stated that after Alexander Isak's injury and the collision with him, he sent a message to the forward wishing for a quick recovery:

"I sent him a message because I didn't want to injure him or do something painful to him.

I was just trying to block the shot, and I think things went wrong, how his foot ended up between my legs."

"I wished A. Isak a speedy recovery, that's exactly what I told him... He really appreciated my message when he replied."

26-year-old Alexander Isak will be out for several months due to injury.

The forward has scored 3 goals in 16 matches this season.
